The outcome includes an outcome to be brought from an activity of the touring person in each destination. As the touring plan, there can be generated a touring plan showing at least one of a touring order or a touring time for the two or more sites. Information on the touring plan generated is output.

  • Patent number: 11593513
    Abstract: A method according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes combining pieces of first feature data and pieces of second feature data. Each of the pieces of first feature data is associated with first identification information related to a corresponding one or more of first constituents included in a first group and indicates a feature of the corresponding one or more of the first constituents. Each of the pieces of the second feature data corresponds to one of clusters in the second group. The second feature data includes statistic data associated with second identification information related to two or more of the second constituents included in a corresponding cluster. The statistic data has a statistic indicating a feature of two or more of the second constituents included in the corresponding cluster. The combining is performed based on the first identification information and the second identification information.

  • Publication number: 20220122118
    Abstract: An event plan acquirer is configured to acquire event planning information which is planning information on an external event in a future target period. The external event is an event of which implementation is plannable in advance, of which implementation or notification of the implementation may affect results of programmatic advertising, and which is different from programmatic advertising delivery. A target condition acquirer is configured to acquire target condition information indicating a target condition related to results in a target period of the programmatic advertising. A planner predicts the results of the programmatic advertising in the target period based on the event planning information, the programmatic advertising delivery plan in the target period, and a prescribed prediction model, and creates the programmatic advertising delivery plan in the target period so that the predicted results approach results indicated in the target condition information.

  • Patent number: 10943500
    Abstract: Provided are a method of on online test and an online test server for simply evaluating idea creation skills. A test is conducted online, in which a number of examinees are prompted to repeat a task of choosing a situation setting involving 5W1H from a plurality of options describing ideas corresponding to the situation setting as many times as possible within a time limit, and total scores are calculated for answers of the examinees by assigning weight according to predetermined criteria, thereby evaluating an innovation ability, such as an ability to create a lot of valuable ideas, an ability to create a variety of valuable ideas, or an ability to create rare valuable ideas.
